Take a look at the picture.

http://stormwolf.zapto.org/forum.jpg

See the examples circled in yellow. All of these forums have descriptions under the forum name itself. The category for the forums such as subscriber forum has no discription. See the pink arrows next to the subscriber forum. There is no description here or in any other category listing on this forum.

The example circled in red is the category of archive in which the archive forum resides. This category has a description. It is the only category that has one. The archive forum inside the archive category does not have a great description. All it says is The Archivie see the green arrows. In all of the other forums this is where one would find the description of that forum.

It almost looks like somebody was simply going to make an archive forum then later decided to turn it into its own category and place another forum inside of it. Not saying this is what happened but it seems a viable possibility.

My point in my last post and this one was to only say that the archive category is different from any of the other categories and the description for the actual archive forum is somewhat lacking.

If somebody was used to looking under the forum name for a forum description they would miss the discription put in the category for the archive. I did and I read these forums multiple times per day.

Its not a big deal just pointing out the difference
